26 MELFORT CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swindon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 26 MELFORT CLOSE sales from January 1998 and March 1998 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 1998 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the March 1998 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.
