185 PRESTON DOWN ROAD 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 two 185 PRESTON DOWN ROAD sales from June 1997 and October 2024 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 1997 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the October 2024 sale, where it rises to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.
