5 LEIGHTON ROAD 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 two 5 LEIGHTON ROAD sales from October 2004 and July 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 October 2004 sale was for 67% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 67% below the HPI over time, until the July 2012 sale, where it rises to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.

What might 5 LEIGHTON ROAD be worth now?
