THE FIRS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Hams local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE FIRS sales from January 2002 and November 2013 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 January 2002 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the November 2013 sale, where it rises to 37% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% above the HPI.
