The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Staffordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 BIRCHWOOD CLOSE sales from August 1995 and February 2017 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 August 1995 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the February 2017 sale, where it rises to 12% above the HPI.
