18 WEST DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Brighton and Hove local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 18 WEST DRIVE sales from October 2002 and November 2010 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the October 2002 sale was for 85% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 85% above the HPI over time, until the November 2010 sale, where it rises to 190% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 190% above the HPI.

What might 18 WEST DRIVE be worth now?

18 WEST DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £2,469,949.

This is based on house price inflation of 80.9%, between November 2010 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the Brighton and Hove local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 80.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 WEST DRIVE of £1,365,000 on 29th November 2010. For the value to have increased from £1,365,000 to £2,469,949 over the fifteen years and five months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
