49 SOMERVILLE DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 49 SOMERVILLE DRIVE sales from September 1999 and August 2001 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 September 1999 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the August 2001 sale, where it rises to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.
