The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Leicester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 26 MELTON AVENUE sales between October 2004 and August 2011 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 May 2005 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the August 2011 sale, where it falls to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.
