30 BENCH TOR CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 30 BENCH TOR CLOSE sales between July 1995 and May 2014 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 May 2007 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the May 2014 sale, where it rises to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.
