8 HARDCASTLE 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 HARDCASTLE CLOSE sales between July 1999 and February 2019 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 2008 sale was for 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the February 2019 sale, where it rises to 31% above the HPI.
