5 BISHOPS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 5 BISHOPS CLOSE sales between June 1995 and June 2021 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 January 2017 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it rises to 110% above the HPI.
