The three 4 CHAFFINCH WAY sales between September 2002 and October 2021 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the December 2006 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the October 2021 sale, where it rises to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.
