3 WATFORD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Guildford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 WATFORD CLOSE sales between February 1997 and August 2022 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 2016 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the August 2022 sale, where it rises to 26% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% above the HPI.
