THE FORGE 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 three THE FORGE sales between November 2003 and December 2021 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 December 2019 sale was for 53% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% above the HPI over time, until the December 2021 sale, where it falls to 52% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% above the HPI.
