4 THE ORCHARD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Surrey Heath local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 4 THE ORCHARD sales between June 1999 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 December 2009 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the October 2015 sale, where it falls to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.
