SEA WINDS 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 three SEA WINDS sales between February 2000 and September 2019 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 December 2015 sale was for 84% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 84% above the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it rises to 110% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 110% above the HPI.
