THE ORCHARDS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the New Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE ORCHARDS sales from July 2004 and March 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 July 2004 sale was for 47% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 47% above the HPI over time, until the March 2018 sale, where it falls to 42% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% above the HPI.
