NORTHWOOD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three NORTHWOOD sales between October 1999 and May 2005 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 2002 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the May 2005 sale, where it rises to 23% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% above the HPI.
