ELGIN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Yorkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ELGIN sales from November 2005 and May 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 November 2005 sale was for 42% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% below the HPI over time, until the May 2021 sale, where it falls to 48% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% below the HPI.
