52 HERON DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 52 HERON DRIVE sales between June 1998 and December 2005 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 July 1998 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the December 2005 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.
