49 HIGHERTOWN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cornwall local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 49 HIGHERTOWN sales between February 1998 and May 2010 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 October 1999 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the May 2010 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.
