ROYDEN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Shropshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ROYDEN sales from December 2011 and November 2016 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 December 2011 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the November 2016 sale, where it falls to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.
