THE GABLES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Trafford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE GABLES sales between October 1999 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 April 2006 sale was for 391% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 391% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it falls to 207% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 207% above the HPI.
