5 LOW FOLD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Worcester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 LOW FOLD CLOSE sales between September 1998 and December 2017 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 September 2016 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the December 2017 sale, where it rises to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.
