VALLEY VIEW COTTAGE 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 VALLEY VIEW COTTAGE sales from December 2009 and January 2021 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 December 2009 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the January 2021 sale, where it rises to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.
