The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Worthing local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 42 SOMPTING AVENUE sales from May 2002 and September 2013 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 May 2002 sale was for 44% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% above the HPI over time, until the September 2013 sale, where it falls to 21% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% above the HPI.

42 SOMPTING AVENUE might now be worth an estimated £405,506.
