CROSSWAYS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two CROSSWAYS sales from December 2003 and March 2021 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 December 2003 sale was for 32% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it rises to 52% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% above the HPI.
