THE POPLARS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE POPLARS sales between September 2017 and October 2023 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 2021 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the October 2023 sale, where it rises to 4% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% above the HPI.
