PRIORY LODGE 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 two PRIORY LODGE sales from November 1995 and January 2013 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 November 1995 sale was for 159% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 159% above the HPI over time, until the January 2013 sale, where it falls to 99% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 99% above the HPI.
