WHISPERS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four WHISPERS sales between October 1996 and October 2003 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 February 2002 sale was for 29% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% above the HPI over time, until the October 2003 sale, where it falls to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.
