BEACON HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three BEACON HOUSE sales between March 1998 and November 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 March 1999 sale was for 187% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 187% above the HPI over time, until the November 2013 sale, where it falls to 90% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 90% above the HPI.
