The below graph shows the average detached house price in the King's Lynn and West Norfolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE OLD FORGE sales between November 2001 and March 2018 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 December 2004 sale was for 37% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% above the HPI over time, until the March 2018 sale, where it falls to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.
