5 MONKS LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Lewes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 5 MONKS LANE sales between July 1999 and July 2010 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 March 2008 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the July 2010 sale, where it rises to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.
