The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swindon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 BALE CLOSE sales from February 2005 and July 2006 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 February 2005 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the July 2006 sale, where it rises to 9% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% above the HPI.
