THE BRIARS 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 two THE BRIARS sales from July 2017 and July 2020 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 July 2017 sale was for 29% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% above the HPI over time, until the July 2020 sale, where it rises to 90% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 90% above the HPI.
