30 MERLIN WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Newcastle-under-Lyme local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 30 MERLIN WAY sales between September 1998 and February 2017 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 December 2008 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the February 2017 sale, where it rises to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.
