THE DEEPINGS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four THE DEEPINGS sales between April 2010 and November 2023 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 September 2020 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the November 2023 sale, where it rises to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.
