PYKES HOUSE 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 PYKES HOUSE sales from July 2020 and February 2024 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 2020 sale was for 144% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 144% above the HPI over time, until the February 2024 sale, where it rises to 161% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 161% above the HPI.
