The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sheffield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 4 MERCIA DRIVE sales between July 1997 and April 2021 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 March 2016 sale was for 38% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% above the HPI over time, until the April 2021 sale, where it falls to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.
