28 FIRBANK CLOSE 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 28 FIRBANK CLOSE sales from January 1996 and December 2022 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 1996 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the December 2022 sale, where it rises to 5% below the HPI.
