4 CHARLES CLOSE 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 three 4 CHARLES CLOSE sales between December 1996 and September 2012 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 December 1999 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the September 2012 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.
