BEGGARS BUSH Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wealden local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BEGGARS BUSH sales from October 2002 and September 2005 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 October 2002 sale was for 159% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 159% above the HPI over time, until the September 2005 sale, where it falls to 137% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 137% above the HPI.
