21 VERVAIN 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 four 21 VERVAIN CLOSE sales between November 2001 and July 2019 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 November 2016 sale was for 46% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% below the HPI over time, until the July 2019 sale, which was also at 46% below the HPI.
