WALNUT HOUSE 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 three WALNUT HOUSE sales between April 1998 and July 2007 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 80% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 80% above the HPI over time, until the July 2007 sale, where it falls to 47% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 47% above the HPI.
