BLEA TARN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bromsgrove local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BLEA TARN sales from August 1996 and October 2014 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 1996 sale was for 57% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 57% below the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it rises to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.
