The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 118 PLATT FOLD ROAD sales from August 2008 and May 2015 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 August 2008 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the May 2015 sale, where it rises to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.
