259 OLD OSCOTT LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Birmingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 259 OLD OSCOTT LANE sales between November 2004 and March 2006 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 January 2006 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the March 2006 sale, where it rises to 33% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% below the HPI.
