CROSSWAYS 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 two CROSSWAYS sales from July 2018 and July 2020 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 2018 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the July 2020 sale, where it rises to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.
