SIGNAL ELM Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SIGNAL ELM sales from January 2018 and October 2020 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 January 2018 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, where it rises to 51% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 51% above the HPI.
