MERRYFIELD 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 three MERRYFIELD sales between October 1996 and October 2010 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 June 2003 sale was for 256% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 256% above the HPI over time, until the October 2010 sale, where it falls to 236% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 236% above the HPI.
