10 BACKWOODS CLOSE 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 four 10 BACKWOODS CLOSE sales between October 1996 and February 2025 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 October 2013 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the February 2025 sale, where it rises to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.
