3 OLD SCHOOL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chichester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 OLD SCHOOL CLOSE sales between July 1996 and February 2012 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 October 1996 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the February 2012 sale, where it falls to 33% below the HPI.
