OLD POST HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Babergh local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two OLD POST HOUSE sales from June 2009 and June 2013 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 June 2009 sale was for 87% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 87% above the HPI over time, until the June 2013 sale, which was also at 87% above the HPI.
