15 DOWNHAM CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Oldham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 15 DOWNHAM CLOSE sales from August 1999 and November 2004 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 August 1999 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the November 2004 sale, where it rises to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.
