8 BLACKDOWN ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Worthing local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 BLACKDOWN ROAD sales from December 2008 and June 2020 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the December 2008 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the June 2020 sale, which was also at 36% below the HPI.
