8 SPY CLOSE 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 three 8 SPY CLOSE sales between June 2009 and August 2024 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 September 2020 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the August 2024 sale, where it rises to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.

What might 8 SPY CLOSE be worth now?
