THE RETREAT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE RETREAT sales from October 1995 and December 2015 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 October 1995 sale was for 55% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 55% above the HPI over time, until the December 2015 sale, where it falls to 24% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% above the HPI.
