HEIGHTS END Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HEIGHTS END sales from March 2001 and March 2015 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 March 2001 sale was for 177% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 177% above the HPI over time, until the March 2015 sale, where it falls to 149% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 149% above the HPI.
