161 WORDSWORTH DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Eastbourne local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 161 WORDSWORTH DRIVE sales between April 1997 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 January 2014 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the June 2016 sale, where it rises to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.
