16 MERLEWOOD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 16 MERLEWOOD CLOSE sales between October 2005 and June 2011 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 November 2009 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the June 2011 sale, where it rises to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.
