THE SKILLING 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 SKILLING sales from June 2003 and September 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 June 2003 sale was for 76% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 76% above the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it falls to 51% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 51% above the HPI.
