4 BATTING CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 BATTING CLOSE sales from June 2000 and May 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 June 2000 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the May 2017 sale, where it falls to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.
