ORCHARD CROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ORCHARD CROFT sales from May 2000 and August 2014 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 May 2000 sale was for 80% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 80% above the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it falls to 50% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 50% above the HPI.
