10 THE FIRS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bridgend local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 10 THE FIRS sales between September 2000 and February 2017 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 2010 sale was for 47% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 47% above the HPI over time, until the February 2017 sale, where it falls to 38% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% above the HPI.
