12 MERTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the New Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 12 MERTON CLOSE sales from July 2006 and December 2010 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 July 2006 sale was for 40% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% below the HPI over time, until the December 2010 sale, where it rises to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.
