The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Blaby local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 55 OWEN CLOSE sales between July 1998 and April 2019 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 March 2011 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the April 2019 sale, where it falls to 46% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% below the HPI.
