18 RUFFHAMS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the York local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 18 RUFFHAMS CLOSE sales between August 1998 and January 2005 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 August 2000 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the January 2005 sale, where it rises to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.
