WHISPERS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tandridge local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four WHISPERS sales between August 1996 and January 2022 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 April 2003 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the January 2022 sale, where it falls to 45% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 45% below the HPI.
