18 POPLAR DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 18 POPLAR DRIVE sales from June 2006 and February 2015 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 June 2006 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the February 2015 sale, where it rises to 10% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% below the HPI.
