THE ORCHARD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bath and North East Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The six THE ORCHARD sales between September 1995 and August 2018 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 2014 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, where it rises to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.
