8 WHITEMANS 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 two 8 WHITEMANS CLOSE sales from January 2008 and July 2019 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 January 2008 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the July 2019 sale, where it falls to 28% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% below the HPI.

What might 8 WHITEMANS CLOSE be worth now?
