THE COPSE 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 four THE COPSE sales between August 1997 and August 2009 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 2004 sale was for 120% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 120% above the HPI over time, until the August 2009 sale, where it rises to 192% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 192% above the HPI.
