WOODPECKERS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chichester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WOODPECKERS sales from January 1998 and August 2016 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 January 1998 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the August 2016 sale, where it falls to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might WOODPECKERS be worth now?

WOODPECKERS might now be worth an estimated £557,113.

This is based on house price inflation of 16.1%, between August 2016 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the Chichester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 16.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WOODPECKERS of £480,000 on 12th August 2016. For the value to have increased from £480,000 to £557,113 over the nine years and two months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WOODPECKERS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Chichester local authority area.
• The August 2016 sale price of £480,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WOODPECKERS has not materially changed since August 2016.
