THE BUNGALOW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE BUNGALOW sales between April 1995 and April 2004 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 January 2001 sale was for 54% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 54% below the HPI over time, until the April 2004 sale, where it rises to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.
