9 HERON DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 9 HERON DRIVE sales between August 1997 and March 2021 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 2005 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it rises to 20% below the HPI.
