147 SIMPKIN STREET 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 147 SIMPKIN STREET sales between February 1997 and June 2010 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 February 2007 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the June 2010 sale, where it rises to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.
