8 SOMERVILLE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Eastbourne local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 SOMERVILLE CLOSE sales from September 2002 and August 2022 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 September 2002 sale was for 45% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% below the HPI over time, until the August 2022 sale, where it rises to 39% below the HPI.
