LYNCOMBE LODGE 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 LYNCOMBE LODGE sales between November 2012 and February 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 December 2017 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the February 2023 sale, where it rises to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.
