5 MERTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Leeds local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 MERTON CLOSE sales from July 1997 and March 2020 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the July 1997 sale was for 63% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 63% below the HPI over time, until the March 2020 sale, where it rises to 39% below the HPI.
