The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Oldham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 12 LAUNCESTON CLOSE sales between June 2001 and December 2017 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 2007 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the December 2017 sale, where it falls to 49% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% below the HPI.
