ALCESTER Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Isle of Wight local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three ALCESTER sales between April 1997 and August 2009 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 1999 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the August 2009 sale, where it falls to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.
