LINDEN HOUSE 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 four LINDEN HOUSE sales between August 1997 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 November 2015 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the August 2017 sale, where it rises to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.
