3 CARP CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Worcester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 3 CARP CLOSE sales between May 2008 and November 2023 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 2020 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the November 2023 sale, which was also at 8% below the HPI.
