The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wyre Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 78 BIRMINGHAM ROAD sales between March 2009 and March 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 July 2016 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the March 2024 sale, where it rises to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.
