18 COUNTER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 18 COUNTER CLOSE sales from October 1996 and February 2020 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 1996 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the February 2020 sale, where it falls to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.
