THE ORCHARD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Lewes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE ORCHARD sales from October 1995 and February 1999 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 October 1995 sale was for 159% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 159% above the HPI over time, until the February 1999 sale, where it falls to 133% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 133% above the HPI.
