8 ORCHID CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Blaby local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 ORCHID CLOSE sales from October 1996 and January 1998 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 October 1996 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the January 1998 sale, where it rises to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.
