150 BABBACOMBE ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 150 BABBACOMBE ROAD sales from March 1996 and June 1997 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 March 1996 sale was for 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the June 1997 sale, where it rises to 25% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% above the HPI.
