29 MINERVA CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Staffordshire Moorlands local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 29 MINERVA CLOSE sales between December 1996 and February 2019 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 2013 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the February 2019 sale, which was also at 32% below the HPI.
