6 MERLIN WAY 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 two 6 MERLIN WAY sales from October 1999 and March 2002 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 October 1999 sale was for 44% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% below the HPI over time, until the March 2002 sale, where it falls to 48% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% below the HPI.
