5 FOLDING CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 FOLDING CLOSE sales between May 1995 and June 2015 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 October 1996 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the June 2015 sale, where it falls to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.
