The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bolton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 WELLBURN CLOSE sales from August 1998 and November 2014 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 August 1998 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the November 2014 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.
