8 FEARNHAM CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 FEARNHAM CLOSE sales between March 1995 and February 2003 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 February 1998 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the February 2003 sale, where it rises to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.
