The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 55 WALTER SCOTT AVENUE sales from April 2006 and April 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 April 2006 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the April 2012 sale, where it rises to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.
