THE OLD SCHOOL Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE OLD SCHOOL sales from November 2001 and October 2018 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 November 2001 sale was for 135% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 135% above the HPI over time, until the October 2018 sale, where it falls to 124% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 124% above the HPI.
