6 MORLEY 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 two 6 MORLEY CLOSE sales from February 1996 and March 2016 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 February 1996 sale was for 83% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 83% above the HPI over time, until the March 2016 sale, where it falls to 47% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 47% above the HPI.
