THE FIRS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Winchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE FIRS sales from October 1998 and April 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 1998 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the April 2014 sale, where it rises to 24% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% above the HPI.
