32 CHICHESTER DRIVE EAST Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Brighton and Hove local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 32 CHICHESTER DRIVE EAST sales between December 2006 and September 2024 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the December 2020 sale was for 58% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 58% above the HPI over time, until the September 2024 sale, where it rises to 80% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 80% above the HPI.
