5 THE RIVIERA 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 THE RIVIERA sales between June 1999 and June 2023 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 August 2005 sale was for 57% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 57% above the HPI over time, until the June 2023 sale, where it falls to 25% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% above the HPI.
