HIGHFIELD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Ribble local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four HIGHFIELD sales between October 2003 and October 2018 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 June 2015 sale was for 94% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 94% above the HPI over time, until the October 2018 sale, where it falls to 80% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 80% above the HPI.
