MERRYMEAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Basingstoke and Deane local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two MERRYMEAD sales from November 2014 and May 2020 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 November 2014 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the May 2020 sale, where it rises to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.
