The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Worcester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 LEA CLOSE sales between September 1996 and January 2024 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 1999 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the January 2024 sale, which was also at 12% below the HPI.
