1 ECHO CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 1 ECHO CLOSE sales between September 1995 and August 2024 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 2013 sale was for 50% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% below the HPI over time, until the August 2024 sale, where it falls to 52% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% below the HPI.
