THE ORCHARD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Lancashire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE ORCHARD sales between November 2000 and October 2006 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 May 2003 sale was for 45% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% below the HPI over time, until the October 2006 sale, where it falls to 49% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% below the HPI.
