BIRD HURST Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BIRD HURST sales from April 2007 and November 2011 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 2007 sale was for 96% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 96% above the HPI over time, until the November 2011 sale, where it falls to 91% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 91% above the HPI.
