15 MERLIN WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rotherham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 15 MERLIN WAY sales from November 1996 and August 2015 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 November 1996 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the August 2015 sale, where it rises to 61% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 61% above the HPI.
