17 BIDSTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Oldham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 17 BIDSTON CLOSE sales from May 1996 and August 2004 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 May 1996 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the August 2004 sale, where it rises to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.
