14 SAFFRON 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 three 14 SAFFRON CLOSE sales between June 2000 and January 2011 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 June 2002 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the January 2011 sale, where it falls to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.
