5 SOMERSET CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the York local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 5 SOMERSET CLOSE sales between August 1998 and July 2018 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 June 2017 sale was for 37% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% below the HPI over time, until the July 2018 sale, where it falls to 38% below the HPI.
