12 SOVEREIGN 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 SOVEREIGN CLOSE sales from December 1999 and August 2004 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 December 1999 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the August 2004 sale, where it falls to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.
