THORPE HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THORPE HOUSE sales between January 2008 and February 2022 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 2014 sale was for 253% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 253% above the HPI over time, until the February 2022 sale, where it rises to 318% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 318% above the HPI.
