The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 8 ORKNEY CLOSE sales between March 1999 and April 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 June 2009 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the April 2016 sale, which was also at 21% below the HPI.
