DOWNTON 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 two DOWNTON sales from July 2003 and September 2005 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 2003 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the September 2005 sale, where it falls to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.
