13 MARTIN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 13 MARTIN CLOSE sales between July 1995 and July 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 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the July 2012 sale, which was also at 3% below the HPI.
