1 FREER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Blaby local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 FREER CLOSE sales from May 1995 and June 2014 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 1995 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the June 2014 sale, where it rises to 25% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% above the HPI.
