179 MARTINS LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Lancashire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 179 MARTINS LANE sales from March 1996 and October 2002 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 1996 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the October 2002 sale, where it falls to 47% below the HPI.
