The areas in Eastbourne where house prices rose the most and fell in the last year have been revealed. The coronavirus pandemic caused an unprecedented economic shock in the UK, closing businesses and putting people out of work left, right and centre. But despite that, average house prices held up across England – even if there was a drop in sales. It was the same picture in Eastbourne where prices rose by 5.4 per cent per cent in the year to September 2020, even as sales dropped by 19.6 per cent. The average price of a house in Eastbourne in the year ending September 2020 was £280,498 – compared to £266,154 the previous year. Here we reveal which neighbourhoods saw the strongest growth in the year to September 2020 and where house prices dropped.
