3A WILLOW DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3A WILLOW DRIVE sales from October 2014 and December 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 October 2014 sale was for 46% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% below the HPI over time, until the December 2021 sale, where it rises to 37% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% below the HPI.
