4 DOWNHAM CLOSE 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 two 4 DOWNHAM CLOSE sales from December 2006 and December 2020 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 December 2006 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI.
