7 DOWNSIDE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 7 DOWNSIDE CLOSE sales between July 1997 and August 2012 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 December 2007 sale was for 55% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 55% below the HPI over time, until the August 2012 sale, where it rises to 49% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% below the HPI.
