The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bolton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 9 HARDCASTLE CLOSE sales from July 1997 and June 2008 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the July 1997 sale was for 23% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% above the HPI over time, until the June 2008 sale, where it falls to 16% below the HPI.
