The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Oldham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 29 MATTHEW CLOSE sales between January 2003 and February 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 April 2005 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the February 2022 sale, which was also at 10% below the HPI.
