LINUS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LINUS sales from January 2009 and January 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 January 2009 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the January 2021 sale, where it rises to 105% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 105% above the HPI.
