17 MERTON ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Portsmouth local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 17 MERTON ROAD sales from June 2017 and April 2022 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 June 2017 sale was for 73% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 73% above the HPI over time, until the April 2022 sale, where it falls to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.
