44 AJAX DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bury local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 44 AJAX DRIVE sales between September 1998 and July 2009 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 May 2003 sale was for 84% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 84% above the HPI over time, until the July 2009 sale, where it falls to 42% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% above the HPI.
