HIGHDOWN HOUSE 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 two HIGHDOWN HOUSE sales from October 2015 and April 2018 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 2015 sale was for 113% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 113% above the HPI over time, until the April 2018 sale, where it rises to 168% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 168% above the HPI.
