The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Blaby local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 14 SWORD CLOSE sales between December 1997 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 May 2003 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the December 2017 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.
