The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Telford and Wrekin local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 34 MERCIA DRIVE sales between June 1995 and February 2023 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 May 1997 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the February 2023 sale, where it falls to 38% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% below the HPI.
