WALDEN 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 three WALDEN sales between May 2001 and July 2015 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 March 2006 sale was for 56% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 56% above the HPI over time, until the July 2015 sale, where it falls to 54% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 54% above the HPI.
