18 SHERIFFS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Lichfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 18 SHERIFFS CLOSE sales between December 1996 and September 2004 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 1997 sale was for 32% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% above the HPI over time, until the September 2004 sale, where it falls to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.
