265 KINGSWAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Brighton and Hove local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 265 KINGSWAY sales between December 1996 and August 2020 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 January 2016 sale was for 54% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 54% above the HPI over time, until the August 2020 sale, where it rises to 138% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 138% above the HPI.
