2 SYLVAN CLOSE 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 2 SYLVAN CLOSE sales from April 2004 and January 2011 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 April 2004 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the January 2011 sale, where it falls to 41% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% below the HPI.
