178 LUNTS HEATH ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Halton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 178 LUNTS HEATH ROAD sales from November 2013 and October 2018 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 November 2013 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the October 2018 sale, where it rises to 53% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 53% above the HPI.
