FOREST LEA 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 three FOREST LEA sales between June 2001 and May 2022 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 April 2013 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the May 2022 sale, where it falls to 20% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% above the HPI.
