8 WIDGET CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bournemouth Christchurch and Poole local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 WIDGET CLOSE sales between March 1995 and April 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 April 1999 sale was for 45% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% below the HPI over time, until the April 2020 sale, where it rises to 42% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% below the HPI.
