5 TOWNCROFT LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bolton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 TOWNCROFT LANE sales from November 2000 and September 2012 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the November 2000 sale was for 101% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 101% above the HPI over time, until the September 2012 sale, where it falls to 89% above the HPI.
