THE FORGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Vale of White Horse local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE FORGE sales between January 1996 and August 2024 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 2003 sale was for 89% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 89% above the HPI over time, until the August 2024 sale, where it falls to 53% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 53% above the HPI.
