ELLESMERE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ELLESMERE sales from July 2007 and August 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 July 2007 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, which was also at 1% above the HPI.
