40 KING STREET Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 40 KING STREET sales between March 1999 and December 2022 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 2010 sale was for 92% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 92% above the HPI over time, until the December 2022 sale, where it falls to 66% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 66% above the HPI.
