THE OLD SCHOOL HOUSE 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 two THE OLD SCHOOL HOUSE sales from September 2015 and January 2019 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 September 2015 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the January 2019 sale, where it rises to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.
