15 BISHOPS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 15 BISHOPS CLOSE sales between June 1999 and January 2013 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 2003 sale was for 34% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% above the HPI over time, until the January 2013 sale, where it rises to 47% above the HPI.
