2 STAR CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sandwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 STAR CLOSE sales between December 1997 and April 2010 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 2002 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the April 2010 sale, where it falls to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.
