4 THE FOLLY 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 two 4 THE FOLLY sales from July 2008 and August 2016 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 2008 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the August 2016 sale, where it rises to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.
