172 UPPER BRIGHTON ROAD 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 two 172 UPPER BRIGHTON ROAD sales from November 1998 and October 2009 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the November 1998 sale was for 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the October 2009 sale, where it rises to 16% above the HPI.
