The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Harrow local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 OLD FORGE CLOSE sales from February 1998 and June 2012 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 February 1998 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the June 2012 sale, where it rises to 15% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% above the HPI.
