5 DOWNSWAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Guildford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 DOWNSWAY sales from August 2014 and August 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 August 2014 sale was for 163% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 163% above the HPI over time, until the August 2021 sale, where it falls to 143% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 143% above the HPI.
