5 HOUGHTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 HOUGHTON CLOSE sales between September 2001 and November 2005 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 November 2002 sale was for 35% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% above the HPI over time, until the November 2005 sale, where it falls to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.
