96 WESTERN ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Adur local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 96 WESTERN ROAD sales between July 1998 and October 2023 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 2002 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the October 2023 sale, where it falls to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.
