THE OLD HOUSE 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 OLD HOUSE sales from August 1996 and October 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 August 1996 sale was for 208% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 208% above the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, where it falls to 92% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 92% above the HPI.
