The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 19 LOWBOURNE sales between July 2003 and February 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 June 2009 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the February 2023 sale, where it falls to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.
