278 HIGHFIELD ROAD 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 two 278 HIGHFIELD ROAD sales from February 2008 and November 2023 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 2008 sale was for 86% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 86% below the HPI over time, until the November 2023 sale, where it rises to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.
