2 THE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wealden local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 THE CLOSE sales from July 1998 and June 2010 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 July 1998 sale was for 89% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 89% above the HPI over time, until the June 2010 sale, where it falls to 65% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 65% above the HPI.
