44 LOCKING CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 44 LOCKING CLOSE sales between April 2003 and March 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 July 2006 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the March 2014 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.
