THE HERMITAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Hyndburn local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE HERMITAGE sales between October 2000 and September 2011 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 August 2004 sale was for 34% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% above the HPI over time, until the September 2011 sale, where it rises to 76% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 76% above the HPI.
