5 DIGMOOR DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Lancashire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 DIGMOOR DRIVE sales from April 2006 and October 2024 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 April 2006 sale was for 52% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 52% below the HPI over time, until the October 2024 sale, where it falls to 56% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 56% below the HPI.
