8 MERLIN PARK Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 8 MERLIN PARK sales between March 1997 and May 2013 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 June 2010 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the May 2013 sale, where it falls to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.
