The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bromsgrove local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 MERRILL GARDENS sales from August 1995 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 August 1995 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the January 2021 sale, where it rises to 6% below the HPI.
