5 ELGAR CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Portsmouth local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 ELGAR CLOSE sales from April 1996 and August 2002 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 1996 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the August 2002 sale, where it falls to 33% below the HPI.
