THE OLD FORGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Gloucestershire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE OLD FORGE sales from May 2001 and September 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 May 2001 sale was for 28% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% above the HPI over time, until the September 2005 sale, where it falls to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.
