1 FORGE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire East local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 1 FORGE CLOSE sales between September 1997 and December 2013 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 February 2002 sale was for 26% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% above the HPI over time, until the December 2013 sale, where it falls to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.
