MERRIMENT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tandridge local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two MERRIMENT sales from April 2004 and November 2017 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 April 2004 sale was for 56% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 56% above the HPI over time, until the November 2017 sale, where it falls to 48% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% above the HPI.
