17 SAFFRON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 17 SAFFRON CLOSE sales between April 2000 and March 2016 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 March 2016 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the March 2016 sale, where it rises to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.
