31 VALLEY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Lewes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 31 VALLEY CLOSE sales from June 1997 and May 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 June 1997 sale was for 39% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% below the HPI over time, until the May 2005 sale, where it rises to 36% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% below the HPI.
