HIGHLOW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dacorum local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HIGHLOW sales from August 2002 and September 2009 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 August 2002 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the September 2009 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.
