8 HOBBY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stoke-on-Trent local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 HOBBY CLOSE sales between February 1996 and October 2022 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 August 2020 sale was for 64% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 64% above the HPI over time, until the October 2022 sale, where it falls to 60% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 60% above the HPI.
