3B SANDCROSS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3B SANDCROSS CLOSE sales from July 2016 and June 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 July 2016 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the June 2017 sale, where it rises to 16% above the HPI.
