THE CLOSE 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 CLOSE sales between June 1995 and September 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 August 2011 sale was for 248% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 248% above the HPI over time, until the September 2016 sale, where it falls to 231% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 231% above the HPI.
