8 LAWN CLOSE 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 three 8 LAWN CLOSE sales between March 2004 and June 2015 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 July 2004 sale was for 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the June 2015 sale, where it rises to 29% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% above the HPI.
