CROFT HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two CROFT HOUSE sales from September 2007 and March 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 September 2007 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the March 2015 sale, where it falls to 41% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% below the HPI.
