255 WHITTINGHAM DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bury local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 255 WHITTINGHAM DRIVE sales between July 2010 and May 2021 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the April 2018 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the May 2021 sale, where it rises to 34% above the HPI.
