The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Horsham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 HIGHBIRCH CLOSE sales from December 1998 and June 2021 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 1998 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it rises to 15% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% above the HPI.
