The two 40 VIOLET CLOSE sales from October 2003 and July 2017 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 October 2003 sale was for 53% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% below the HPI over time, until the July 2017 sale, which was also at 53% below the HPI.
