The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Eastbourne local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 12 THE CLOSE sales between January 1996 and December 2009 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 March 2000 sale was for 79% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 79% above the HPI over time, until the December 2009 sale, where it falls to 61% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 61% above the HPI.
