15 LAUREL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Worthing local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 15 LAUREL CLOSE sales between January 2004 and December 2013 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 October 2010 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the December 2013 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.
