8 MILL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Charnwood local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The six 8 MILL CLOSE sales between October 1997 and May 2011 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 2008 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the May 2011 sale, where it rises to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.
