BARBARY HOUSE 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 two BARBARY HOUSE sales from October 2002 and February 2018 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 October 2002 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the February 2018 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.
