THE CROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Boston local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE CROFT sales between May 1996 and July 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 June 2002 sale was for 21% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% above the HPI over time, until the July 2009 sale, where it falls to 4% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% above the HPI.
