5 DOWLING CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 5 DOWLING CLOSE sales between January 1998 and October 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 April 2005 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.
