BEECH HURST 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 two BEECH HURST sales from April 2002 and March 2015 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 April 2002 sale was for 26% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% above the HPI over time, until the March 2015 sale, where it rises to 67% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 67% above the HPI.
