5 ILEX CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 5 ILEX CLOSE sales between May 2001 and February 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 2014 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the February 2020 sale, which was also at 31% below the HPI.
