5 ASH CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 ASH CLOSE sales between November 2002 and March 2022 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 2003 sale was for 15% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% above the HPI over time, until the March 2022 sale, where it falls to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.
