WEST HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WEST HOUSE sales from December 2002 and December 2010 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 2002 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the December 2010 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.
