LAKE BARN 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 four LAKE BARN sales between July 1995 and September 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 September 2009 sale was for 9% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% above the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it rises to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.
