1 HIGHFIELD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Medway local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 HIGHFIELD CLOSE sales from August 2009 and February 2014 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 August 2009 sale was for 12% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% above the HPI over time, until the February 2014 sale, where it rises to 25% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% above the HPI.

What might 1 HIGHFIELD CLOSE be worth now?
