2 ORCHARD LANE 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 two 2 ORCHARD LANE sales from June 1995 and May 2007 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 June 1995 sale was for 105% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 105% above the HPI over time, until the May 2007 sale, where it falls to 95% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 95% above the HPI.
