The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rotherham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 HELMSLEY CLOSE sales from December 1996 and October 2020 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 1996 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, which was also at 7% below the HPI.
