The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 26 MELCOMBE AVENUE sales between July 2000 and October 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 October 2008 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the October 2015 sale, where it rises to 21% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% above the HPI.
