2 BIRKRIGG CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 BIRKRIGG CLOSE sales between October 1997 and April 2005 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 April 2001 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the April 2005 sale, where it falls to 39% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% below the HPI.
