CROPTHORNE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Babergh local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three CROPTHORNE sales between August 2000 and April 2016 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 July 2013 sale was for 50% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% above the HPI over time, until the April 2016 sale, where it rises to 71% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 71% above the HPI.
