28 LEA CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 28 LEA CLOSE sales from March 1997 and December 2009 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 March 1997 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the December 2009 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.
