17 DE MONTFORT ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Lewes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 17 DE MONTFORT ROAD sales between June 1998 and June 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 July 2004 sale was for 89% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 89% above the HPI over time, until the June 2008 sale, where it rises to 101% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 101% above the HPI.
