597 WELFORD ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Leicester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 597 WELFORD ROAD sales from August 1997 and July 1998 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 1997 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the July 1998 sale, where it rises to 31% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% above the HPI.
