8 STAPLEHURST CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 8 STAPLEHURST CLOSE sales between May 2000 and March 2017 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 June 2015 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the March 2017 sale, where it falls to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.
