The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 OLD SCHOOL CLOSE sales from December 2013 and January 2016 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 December 2013 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the January 2016 sale, where it falls to 28% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% below the HPI.
