SQUASH COTTAGE 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 SQUASH COTTAGE sales from December 1997 and November 2023 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 December 1997 sale was for 8% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% above the HPI over time, until the November 2023 sale, where it falls to 50% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 50% below the HPI.

What might SQUASH COTTAGE be worth now?

SQUASH COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £423,115.

This is based on house price deflation of 3.2%, between November 2023 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 3.2% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for SQUASH COTTAGE of £437,000 on 13th November 2023. For the value to have decreased from £437,000 to £423,115 over the two years and five months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SQUASH COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Brighton and Hove local authority area.
• The November 2023 sale price of £437,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SQUASH COTTAGE has not materially changed since November 2023.
