SIMONSTONE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SIMONSTONE sales from June 2017 and July 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 June 2017 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the July 2023 sale, where it rises to 45% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 45% above the HPI.
