1 ALVIN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Shropshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 ALVIN CLOSE sales from October 1997 and January 2016 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 October 1997 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the January 2016 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.
