WAYFARERS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Lewes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WAYFARERS sales from November 2006 and February 2019 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 November 2006 sale was for 55% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 55% above the HPI over time, until the February 2019 sale, where it falls to 38% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% above the HPI.
