16 ASHINGTON CLOSE 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 two 16 ASHINGTON CLOSE sales from December 2000 and October 2016 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 December 2000 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the October 2016 sale, where it falls to 33% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% below the HPI.
