THE BARN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE BARN sales between September 2015 and June 2021 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 April 2020 sale was for 97% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 97% below the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it rises to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.
