HILLCREST Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Surrey Heath local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HILLCREST sales from July 2016 and August 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 July 2016 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it rises to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.
