24 SMART 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 24 SMART CLOSE sales between February 2000 and August 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 July 2004 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the August 2015 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.
