5 FIRBARN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rochdale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 FIRBARN CLOSE sales from December 1995 and January 2010 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 December 1995 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the January 2010 sale, where it falls to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.
