TOP END Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three TOP END sales between August 1998 and December 2020 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 January 2004 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it falls to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.
