8 ALCESTER DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Leicester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 ALCESTER DRIVE sales from November 1995 and October 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 November 1995 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the October 2012 sale, where it falls to 19% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% below the HPI.
