5 DRAGON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Lancashire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 DRAGON CLOSE sales between September 2004 and January 2021 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 April 2008 sale was for 41% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 41% below the HPI over time, until the January 2021 sale, where it falls to 48% below the HPI.
