The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 48 SHEARWATER DRIVE sales between October 2000 and May 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 April 2007 sale was for 39% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% below the HPI over time, until the May 2015 sale, where it falls to 43% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% below the HPI.
