3 PORTMORE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swindon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 PORTMORE CLOSE sales from July 1996 and July 2009 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 July 1996 sale was for 37% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% below the HPI over time, until the July 2009 sale, where it falls to 43% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% below the HPI.
