28 KITE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Hastings local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 28 KITE CLOSE sales between December 1999 and May 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 August 2002 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the May 2020 sale, where it falls to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.
