The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 470 BABBACOMBE ROAD sales between March 2000 and December 2006 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 2004 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the December 2006 sale, where it rises to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.
