17 CHESTERTON DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Lewes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 17 CHESTERTON DRIVE sales between June 1997 and April 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 August 2003 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the April 2013 sale, where it falls to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.

What might 17 CHESTERTON DRIVE be worth now?
