THE DENES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE DENES sales from October 1999 and July 2014 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 October 1999 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the July 2014 sale, where it falls to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.
