98 FOREDOWN DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Brighton and Hove local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 98 FOREDOWN DRIVE sales from March 1996 and September 2005 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 1996 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the September 2005 sale, where it falls to 35% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% below the HPI.

What might 98 FOREDOWN DRIVE be worth now?
