The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Lancashire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 173 MARTINS LANE sales from October 2004 and October 2005 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 October 2004 sale was for 48% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% below the HPI over time, until the October 2005 sale, where it rises to 37% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% below the HPI.
