BIRKDALE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Ashford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BIRKDALE sales from October 2008 and April 2012 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 2008 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the April 2012 sale, where it rises to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.
