LONGTHORNS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LONGTHORNS sales from March 2007 and October 2010 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 March 2007 sale was for 69% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 69% above the HPI over time, until the October 2010 sale, where it falls to 51% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 51% above the HPI.
