3 FRANCIS BERNARD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Boston local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 FRANCIS BERNARD CLOSE sales between May 2016 and May 2021 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 March 2018 sale was for 9% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% below the HPI over time, until the May 2021 sale, where it rises to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.
