3 BALFOUR CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wyre local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 BALFOUR CLOSE sales from June 1995 and March 2012 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 June 1995 sale was for 54% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 54% above the HPI over time, until the March 2012 sale, where it falls to 44% above the HPI.
