The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Surrey Heath local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 73 BIRCHWOOD DRIVE sales from December 1999 and December 2011 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 1999 sale was for 72% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 72% below the HPI over time, until the December 2011 sale, which was also at 72% below the HPI.
