12 BENSON ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Oxford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 12 BENSON ROAD sales between June 2001 and June 2012 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 April 2005 sale was for 55% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 55% below the HPI over time, until the June 2012 sale, where it falls to 56% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 56% below the HPI.
