WEST BEACH 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 WEST BEACH sales between June 1996 and January 2020 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 December 2013 sale was for 90% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 90% above the HPI over time, until the January 2020 sale, where it rises to 126% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 126% above the HPI.
