1 DESFORD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Gloucester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The six 1 DESFORD CLOSE sales between May 1997 and May 2023 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 2018 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the May 2023 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI.
