WHITETHORNS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stevenage local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WHITETHORNS sales from June 1998 and April 2015 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 June 1998 sale was for 81% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 81% above the HPI over time, until the April 2015 sale, where it rises to 165% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 165% above the HPI.
