THE RETREAT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE RETREAT sales from June 2014 and August 2017 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 June 2014 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the August 2017 sale, where it rises to 19% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% above the HPI.
