MELBREAK HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two MELBREAK HOUSE sales from May 1999 and February 2019 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 May 1999 sale was for 9% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% above the HPI over time, until the February 2019 sale, where it rises to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.
