38 CROFTERS GREEN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Preston local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 38 CROFTERS GREEN sales from April 2017 and September 2021 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 April 2017 sale was for 56% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 56% below the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it rises to 51% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 51% below the HPI.
