WHIN RIGG Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WHIN RIGG sales from December 1996 and November 2018 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 1996 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the November 2018 sale, where it falls to 36% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% below the HPI.
