12 QUEEN CAROLINE CLOSE 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 12 QUEEN CAROLINE CLOSE sales from April 2000 and November 2008 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 April 2000 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the November 2008 sale, where it falls to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.
