LYTHWOOD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LYTHWOOD sales from February 1997 and September 2018 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 February 1997 sale was for 31% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% above the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it rises to 56% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 56% above the HPI.
