26 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 two 26 SMART CLOSE sales from February 2000 and January 2004 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 2000 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the January 2004 sale, where it falls to 19% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% below the HPI.
