MELROSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three MELROSE sales between March 1997 and May 2011 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 June 2001 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the May 2011 sale, where it falls to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.
