WELLSWOOD HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheltenham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WELLSWOOD HOUSE sales from January 1996 and September 1997 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 1996 sale was for 132% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 132% above the HPI over time, until the September 1997 sale, where it falls to 129% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 129% above the HPI.
