42 HIGHFIELD DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Oldham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 42 HIGHFIELD DRIVE sales between July 2000 and November 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 2016 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the November 2017 sale, where it rises to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.
