DOWNS VIEW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two DOWNS VIEW sales from April 2012 and February 2018 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 April 2012 sale was for 44% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% below the HPI over time, until the February 2018 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.
