The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Lancashire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 56 MELBRECK sales between March 2002 and July 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 June 2012 sale was for 57% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 57% below the HPI over time, until the July 2019 sale, where it rises to 54% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 54% below the HPI.
