HOPE HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three HOPE HOUSE sales between April 2003 and July 2023 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 2017 sale was for 57% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 57% above the HPI over time, until the July 2023 sale, where it falls to 33% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% above the HPI.
