3 WHITETHORN DRIVE 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 two 3 WHITETHORN DRIVE sales from August 2004 and October 2015 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 2004 sale was for 17% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% above the HPI over time, until the October 2015 sale, where it falls to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.

What might 3 WHITETHORN DRIVE be worth now?
