THE LAURELS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE LAURELS sales from July 2000 and September 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 July 2000 sale was for 190% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 190% above the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it rises to 231% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 231% above the HPI.
