THE RETREAT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Forest of Dean local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE RETREAT sales from August 2000 and May 2018 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 August 2000 sale was for 35% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% above the HPI over time, until the May 2018 sale, where it falls to 29% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% above the HPI.
