BARKERS FARM Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bolton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BARKERS FARM sales from July 2015 and May 2022 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 2015 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the May 2022 sale, where it rises to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.
