53 HAPPY ISLAND WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 53 HAPPY ISLAND WAY sales from August 1997 and March 1999 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 1997 sale was for 69% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 69% below the HPI over time, until the March 1999 sale, where it rises to 67% below the HPI.
