49 THE FORGES 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 49 THE FORGES sales from August 2006 and October 2017 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 2006 sale was for 59% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 59% above the HPI over time, until the October 2017 sale, where it falls to 22% above the HPI.
