FERNDOWN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two FERNDOWN sales from June 2009 and August 2019 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 2009 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the August 2019 sale, where it falls to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.
