HIGHCLIFF Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Calderdale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three HIGHCLIFF sales between April 1998 and August 2021 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 March 2019 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the August 2021 sale, where it rises to 89% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 89% above the HPI.
