CAPESTHORNE 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 CAPESTHORNE sales from February 2011 and January 2018 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 February 2011 sale was for 466% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 466% above the HPI over time, until the January 2018 sale, where it rises to 553% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 553% above the HPI.
