5 THE COPSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Hams local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 5 THE COPSE sales between June 1999 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 February 2002 sale was for 47% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 47% below the HPI over time, until the May 2015 sale, where it falls to 53% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 53% below the HPI.
