2 CLOSES FARM Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bolton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 CLOSES FARM sales from September 1998 and April 2016 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 September 1998 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the April 2016 sale, where it falls to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.
