The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Lewes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 15 BISHOPS CLOSE sales from November 2006 and June 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 November 2006 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the June 2016 sale, where it rises to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.
