2 HELSTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stafford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 2 HELSTON CLOSE sales between December 2003 and April 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 December 2012 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the April 2023 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.
