BIRCHWOOD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Staffordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three BIRCHWOOD sales between June 1997 and March 2006 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 August 2003 sale was for 124% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 124% above the HPI over time, until the March 2006 sale, where it rises to 161% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 161% above the HPI.
