3 PALM COURT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Lancashire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 PALM COURT sales from April 1999 and December 1999 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 1999 sale was for 45% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% below the HPI over time, until the December 1999 sale, where it falls to 53% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 53% below the HPI.
