The three 33 TORTOISESHELL WAY sales between December 1998 and August 2009 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 November 2003 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the August 2009 sale, which was also at 6% above the HPI.
