THE BIRCHES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Shropshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE BIRCHES sales from October 2010 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 October 2010 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the August 2021 sale, where it rises to 58% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 58% above the HPI.
