HARBOUR HEIGHTS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HARBOUR HEIGHTS sales from October 1995 and August 2017 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 October 1995 sale was for 65% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 65% above the HPI over time, until the August 2017 sale, where it falls to 37% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% above the HPI.
