BIRCHES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dudley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three BIRCHES sales between July 1997 and November 2010 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 March 2004 sale was for 41% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 41% above the HPI over time, until the November 2010 sale, where it rises to 115% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 115% above the HPI.
