4 KENSINGTON DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Birmingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 KENSINGTON DRIVE sales from May 2002 and December 2016 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 2002 sale was for 20% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% above the HPI over time, until the December 2016 sale, where it rises to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.
