5 MERLIN ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Shropshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 MERLIN ROAD sales between July 2003 and September 2014 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 2005 sale was for 15% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% above the HPI over time, until the September 2014 sale, where it rises to 46% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% above the HPI.
