20 MELBURY 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 four 20 MELBURY CLOSE sales between July 1996 and January 2023 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 August 2002 sale was for 15% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% above the HPI over time, until the January 2023 sale, where it falls to 4% below the HPI.
