The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Lewes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 31 DOWNSVIEW ROAD sales from February 2001 and November 2005 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 February 2001 sale was for 29% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% above the HPI over time, until the November 2005 sale, where it falls to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.
