12 BIDSTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The two 12 BIDSTON CLOSE sales from January 2000 and September 2001 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the January 2000 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the September 2001 sale, which was also at 17% below the HPI.
