ROCK HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bath and North East Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five ROCK HOUSE sales between April 2000 and March 2020 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 2014 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the March 2020 sale, where it rises to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.
