8 RUSHWOOD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Sussex local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 RUSHWOOD CLOSE sales between July 1997 and April 2018 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 August 2001 sale was for 37% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% below the HPI over time, until the April 2018 sale, where it falls to 43% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% below the HPI.

What might 8 RUSHWOOD CLOSE be worth now?
