The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Brighton and Hove local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 SOMERHILL ROAD sales from December 1996 and October 1998 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the December 1996 sale was for 12% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% above the HPI over time, until the October 1998 sale, where it rises to 72% above the HPI.
