159 THE AVENUE 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 159 THE AVENUE sales between May 1996 and October 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 July 2014 sale was for 36% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% above the HPI over time, until the October 2015 sale, where it falls to 25% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% above the HPI.
