17 RECTORY CLOSE 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 six 17 RECTORY CLOSE sales between August 2002 and April 2023 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 2018 sale was for 91% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 91% above the HPI over time, until the April 2023 sale, where it falls to 72% above the HPI.
