MELBURY HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two MELBURY HOUSE sales from August 1996 and March 2012 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 August 1996 sale was for 343% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 343% above the HPI over time, until the March 2012 sale, where it rises to 411% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 411% above the HPI.
