THE OLD FORGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Hart local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE OLD FORGE sales between April 2004 and January 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 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the January 2014 sale, where it rises to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.
