BIRK HOWE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BIRK HOWE sales from August 2005 and July 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 August 2005 sale was for 89% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 89% above the HPI over time, until the July 2009 sale, where it falls to 80% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 80% above the HPI.
