THE GLASS HOUSE 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 three THE GLASS HOUSE sales between October 1996 and December 2018 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 November 2002 sale was for 32% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% above the HPI over time, until the December 2018 sale, where it rises to 43% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% above the HPI.
