18 POPPY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Leicester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 18 POPPY CLOSE sales from May 2016 and October 2023 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 May 2016 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the October 2023 sale, where it falls to 28% below the HPI.
