16 BIRCHWOOD DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Surrey Heath local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 16 BIRCHWOOD DRIVE sales from April 1998 and November 2020 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 April 1998 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it falls to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.
