49 RICHARDS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 49 RICHARDS CLOSE sales between May 2003 and January 2011 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 48% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% below the HPI over time, until the January 2011 sale, where it falls to 49% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% below the HPI.
