23 POPPY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Leicester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 23 POPPY CLOSE sales between June 1995 and September 2015 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 February 2014 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the September 2015 sale, where it falls to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.
