16 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 three 16 BISHOPS CLOSE sales between September 1996 and June 2021 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 2015 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it rises to 75% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 75% above the HPI.
