4 SMITHS LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 4 SMITHS LANE sales between May 1997 and March 2023 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 February 2019 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the March 2023 sale, where it falls to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.
