12 SAFFRON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 12 SAFFRON CLOSE sales between January 1997 and June 2019 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 November 1997 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the June 2019 sale, where it falls to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.
