SOWDEN HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SOWDEN HOUSE sales from March 2002 and July 2006 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 March 2002 sale was for 163% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 163% above the HPI over time, until the July 2006 sale, where it falls to 154% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 154% above the HPI.
