8 MATTHEW CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Oldham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 MATTHEW CLOSE sales from May 2002 and July 2021 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 2002 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the July 2021 sale, where it falls to 5% below the HPI.
