3 BARKSTEAD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swindon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 3 BARKSTEAD CLOSE sales between August 2000 and May 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 2016 sale was for 34% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% below the HPI over time, until the May 2022 sale, where it rises to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.
