WARE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Sussex local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WARE COTTAGE sales from March 2006 and November 2009 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 March 2006 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the November 2009 sale, which was also at 31% below the HPI.

What might WARE COTTAGE be worth now?

WARE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £499,963.

This is based on house price inflation of 81.8%, between November 2009 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the Mid Sussex local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 81.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WARE COTTAGE of £275,000 on 6th November 2009. For the value to have increased from £275,000 to £499,963 over the sixteen years and five months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WARE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mid Sussex local authority area.
• The November 2009 sale price of £275,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WARE COTTAGE has not materially changed since November 2009.
