3 RECTORY GARDENS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bolton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 3 RECTORY GARDENS sales between December 2000 and September 2019 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 2015 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it rises to 30% below the HPI.
