8 EMBSAY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bolton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 EMBSAY CLOSE sales between June 1998 and August 2017 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 October 2009 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the August 2017 sale, where it rises to 20% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% above the HPI.
