THE OLD FORGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four THE OLD FORGE sales between March 2000 and July 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 April 2006 sale was for 61% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 61% below the HPI over time, until the July 2014 sale, where it falls to 69% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 69% below the HPI.
