5B ELGIN GARDENS 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 5B ELGIN GARDENS sales between January 1997 and July 2019 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 2017 sale was for 39% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% below the HPI over time, until the July 2019 sale, where it rises to 22% below the HPI.
