8 THYME CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swindon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 8 THYME CLOSE sales between February 1998 and May 2020 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 July 2014 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the May 2020 sale, where it falls to 47% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 47% below the HPI.
