WITS END 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 WITS END sales from May 1999 and November 2016 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 May 1999 sale was for 66% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 66% above the HPI over time, until the November 2016 sale, where it falls to 42% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% above the HPI.
