The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 10 MERLEWOOD CLOSE sales between April 1999 and August 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 May 2002 sale was for 28% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% above the HPI over time, until the August 2020 sale, where it falls to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.
