17 FORBES 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 three 17 FORBES CLOSE sales between December 1995 and September 2012 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 2004 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the September 2012 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.
