BERNCROFT 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 BERNCROFT sales between February 2002 and January 2017 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 2005 sale was for 12% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% above the HPI over time, until the January 2017 sale, where it rises to 34% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% above the HPI.
