THE OLD FORGE 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 THE OLD FORGE sales between July 1998 and September 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 January 2004 sale was for 94% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 94% above the HPI over time, until the September 2010 sale, where it rises to 99% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 99% above the HPI.
