1 WESTGATE DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 WESTGATE DRIVE sales from September 2005 and December 2016 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 September 2005 sale was for 9% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% below the HPI over time, until the December 2016 sale, where it rises to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.
