THE HOMESTEAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bolton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE HOMESTEAD sales from August 2002 and November 2015 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 2002 sale was for 111% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 111% above the HPI over time, until the November 2015 sale, where it falls to 84% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 84% above the HPI.
