12 MERTON GROVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chorley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 12 MERTON GROVE sales between June 1998 and May 2021 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 January 2019 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the May 2021 sale, where it rises to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.
