2 POPLAR CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 POPLAR CLOSE sales from September 2007 and August 2014 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 2007 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it rises to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.
