2 LEIGH CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Walsall local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 LEIGH CLOSE sales from May 2015 and May 2021 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 May 2015 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the May 2021 sale, where it rises to 8% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% below the HPI.
