3 OAKDOWN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 OAKDOWN CLOSE sales between June 2006 and January 2013 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 September 2007 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the January 2013 sale, where it falls to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.
