3 BLACKTHORN 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 two 3 BLACKTHORN CLOSE sales from April 2018 and July 2023 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the April 2018 sale was for 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the July 2023 sale, where it rises to 9% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% above the HPI.
