FRESHFIELDS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rother local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two FRESHFIELDS sales from July 2004 and March 2015 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 2004 sale was for 48% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% above the HPI over time, until the March 2015 sale, where it rises to 75% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 75% above the HPI.
