FAIRFIELD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Lewes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two FAIRFIELD sales from February 1996 and March 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 February 1996 sale was for 68% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 68% above the HPI over time, until the March 2023 sale, where it falls to 35% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% above the HPI.
