16 THE BIRCHES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 16 THE BIRCHES sales from March 2000 and November 2009 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 2000 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the November 2009 sale, where it falls to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.
