8 BLUE WATERS DRIVE 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 8 BLUE WATERS DRIVE sales from October 2002 and June 2016 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 2002 sale was for 26% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% above the HPI over time, until the June 2016 sale, where it rises to 56% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 56% above the HPI.
