WOODPECKERS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WOODPECKERS sales from January 2002 and September 2011 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 January 2002 sale was for 41% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 41% above the HPI over time, until the September 2011 sale, where it falls to 39% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% above the HPI.
