1 BLENCATHRA CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rochdale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 BLENCATHRA CLOSE sales from February 2020 and February 2022 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 February 2020 sale was for 19% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% above the HPI over time, until the February 2022 sale, where it falls to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.

What might 1 BLENCATHRA CLOSE be worth now?
