TWO STEPS 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 four TWO STEPS sales between July 1999 and December 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 June 2013 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it falls to 39% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% below the HPI.
