BIRCHES GREEN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Babergh local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three BIRCHES GREEN sales between October 2009 and October 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 November 2009 sale was for 71% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 71% above the HPI over time, until the October 2015 sale, where it rises to 72% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 72% above the HPI.
