LITTLE FIRS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three LITTLE FIRS sales between November 2012 and July 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 December 2015 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the July 2017 sale, where it rises to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.
