The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sandwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 BIRCH GROVE sales from November 2012 and September 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 November 2012 sale was for 4% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% above the HPI over time, until the September 2022 sale, which was also at 4% above the HPI.
