THE FIRS 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 two THE FIRS sales from April 1998 and July 2010 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 April 1998 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the July 2010 sale, where it rises to 37% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% above the HPI.
