2 THE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 THE CLOSE sales between April 2015 and June 2021 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 2017 sale was for 40% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% below the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it falls to 46% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% below the HPI.
