3 MERLIN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chorley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 MERLIN CLOSE sales between January 1999 and October 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 2002 sale was for 55% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 55% above the HPI over time, until the October 2009 sale, where it falls to 23% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% above the HPI.
