NORTON HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three NORTON HOUSE sales between September 2005 and February 2016 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 January 2011 sale was for 56% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 56% above the HPI over time, until the February 2016 sale, where it falls to 41% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% above the HPI.
