2 ROYCE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Blaby local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 2 ROYCE CLOSE sales between January 1999 and February 2022 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 July 2006 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the February 2022 sale, which was also at 31% below the HPI.
