1 CHAUCER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 1 CHAUCER CLOSE sales between October 1996 and November 2012 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 May 2011 sale was for 40% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% below the HPI over time, until the November 2012 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.
