42 ELGAR CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swindon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 42 ELGAR CLOSE sales from June 2005 and October 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 June 2005 sale was for 19% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% above the HPI over time, until the October 2016 sale, where it falls to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.
