THE BIRCHES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE BIRCHES sales from May 2011 and November 2013 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 May 2011 sale was for 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the November 2013 sale, where it rises to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.
