THE WATER GARDENS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheltenham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE WATER GARDENS sales between June 2016 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 March 2018 sale was for 223% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 223% above the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, where it falls to 184% above the HPI.
