MAPLE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Arun local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three MAPLE COTTAGE sales between January 1998 and August 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 April 2014 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it falls to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.
