THE BIRCHES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wealden local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE BIRCHES sales from June 2021 and December 2022 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 2021 sale was for 33% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% above the HPI over time, until the December 2022 sale, where it falls to 23% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% above the HPI.
