THE FOLLY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Yorkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE FOLLY sales from June 2004 and April 2005 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 June 2004 sale was for 20% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% above the HPI over time, until the April 2005 sale, where it rises to 122% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 122% above the HPI.
