5 LIBRARY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Kirklees local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 LIBRARY CLOSE sales from November 2003 and October 2013 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 2003 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the October 2013 sale, where it falls to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.
