10 MELBOURNE ROAD 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 two 10 MELBOURNE ROAD sales from June 2005 and February 2007 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 June 2005 sale was for 60% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 60% below the HPI over time, until the February 2007 sale, where it rises to 35% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% below the HPI.
