SMYRNA VILLA 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 SMYRNA VILLA sales between June 1998 and June 2024 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 June 2016 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the June 2024 sale, where it rises to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.
