1 THE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stafford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 THE CLOSE sales from March 2001 and December 2020 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 March 2001 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it rises to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.
