ROSSLYN 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 ROSSLYN sales between September 2011 and April 2023 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 October 2018 sale was for 61% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 61% above the HPI over time, until the April 2023 sale, where it rises to 129% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 129% above the HPI.
