THE OLD FORGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torridge local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE OLD FORGE sales between September 1999 and February 2010 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 November 2007 sale was for 21% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% above the HPI over time, until the February 2010 sale, where it rises to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.
