16 DARWIN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheltenham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 16 DARWIN CLOSE sales between October 2005 and May 2019 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 2006 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the May 2019 sale, where it falls to 41% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% below the HPI.
