BEECH HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Babergh local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BEECH HOUSE sales from August 1999 and June 2008 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 1999 sale was for 125% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 125% above the HPI over time, until the June 2008 sale, where it falls to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.
