The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Kirklees local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two MELBOURNE COTTAGE sales from October 2009 and September 2021 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the October 2009 sale was for 151% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 151% above the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it falls to 124% above the HPI.
