The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bolton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 JAMES STREET sales between December 1995 and June 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 May 2007 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the June 2019 sale, which was also at 38% below the HPI.
