THE ROCHES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Vale of White Horse local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four THE ROCHES sales between August 1997 and July 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 July 2010 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the July 2018 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.
