8 VULCAN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Halton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 VULCAN CLOSE sales from November 2020 and December 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 November 2020 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the December 2024 sale, where it falls to 24% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% above the HPI.
