The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 296 CITY ROAD sales from May 2003 and November 2005 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 May 2003 sale was for 63% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 63% below the HPI over time, until the November 2005 sale, where it rises to 57% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 57% below the HPI.
