MAPLEDOWN 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 four MAPLEDOWN sales between September 1999 and October 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 August 2013 sale was for 60% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 60% above the HPI over time, until the October 2018 sale, where it falls to 43% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% above the HPI.
