38 FOREST DRIVE 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 two 38 FOREST DRIVE sales from August 2004 and February 2012 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the August 2004 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the February 2012 sale, where it falls to 19% below the HPI.
