THE LAURELS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the York local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE LAURELS sales from January 2012 and March 2022 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 2012 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the March 2022 sale, where it falls to 43% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% below the HPI.
