The two 31 THE PADDOCKS sales from September 1998 and December 2016 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 September 1998 sale was for 47% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 47% below the HPI over time, until the December 2016 sale, which was also at 47% below the HPI.
