38 LONDON ROAD 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 38 LONDON ROAD sales from April 2013 and July 2013 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 2013 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the July 2013 sale, where it falls to 35% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% below the HPI.
