55 MERRIDALE ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Southampton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 55 MERRIDALE ROAD sales between February 2015 and April 2024 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 2017 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the April 2024 sale, where it rises to 26% below the HPI.
