5 DRAKES HILL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dudley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 DRAKES HILL CLOSE sales between May 1995 and October 2018 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 February 2013 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the October 2018 sale, where it rises to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.
