CARAPACE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four CARAPACE sales between August 1996 and April 2007 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 2001 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the April 2007 sale, where it rises to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.
