159 HERSCHEL CRESCENT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Oxford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 159 HERSCHEL CRESCENT sales from September 2004 and January 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 September 2004 sale was for 53% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% below the HPI over time, until the January 2010 sale, where it rises to 52% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% below the HPI.
