5 HOUNDEAN 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 three 5 HOUNDEAN CLOSE sales between March 1997 and November 2011 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 1999 sale was for 60% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 60% above the HPI over time, until the November 2011 sale, where it falls to 54% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 54% above the HPI.

What might 5 HOUNDEAN CLOSE be worth now?
