1 HIGHWAY ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Leicester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 1 HIGHWAY ROAD sales between April 1998 and August 2021 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 July 2016 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the August 2021 sale, where it rises to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.
