56 WOOD LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 56 WOOD LANE sales from August 1997 and July 2016 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 August 1997 sale was for 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the July 2016 sale, where it rises to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.
