9 MERLIN WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Newcastle-under-Lyme local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 9 MERLIN WAY sales between December 1997 and November 2023 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 May 2017 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the November 2023 sale, where it rises to 26% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% above the HPI.
