OLD FORGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Malvern Hills local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four OLD FORGE sales between January 1997 and May 2018 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 July 2007 sale was for 19% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% above the HPI over time, until the May 2018 sale, where it rises to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.
