The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Lancashire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three LEGH HOUSE FARM sales between June 2003 and March 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 June 2015 sale was for 133% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 133% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it rises to 171% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 171% above the HPI.
