4 BIRCHFIELDS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Oldham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 4 BIRCHFIELDS sales between January 2001 and July 2011 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 May 2003 sale was for 27% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% above the HPI over time, until the July 2011 sale, where it falls to 15% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% above the HPI.
