EAST SOWDEN FARMHOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three EAST SOWDEN FARMHOUSE sales between June 2003 and June 2022 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 June 2018 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the June 2022 sale, where it rises to 36% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% above the HPI.
