4 RICHARDS CROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 4 RICHARDS CROFT sales between July 2014 and January 2019 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 November 2016 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the January 2019 sale, where it falls to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.
