TOP OF THE HILL Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two TOP OF THE HILL sales from July 2018 and August 2021 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 2018 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the August 2021 sale, where it rises to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.
