1 WIDNEY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Solihull local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 WIDNEY CLOSE sales from December 2009 and February 2016 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 December 2009 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the February 2016 sale, where it rises to 8% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% below the HPI.

What might 1 WIDNEY CLOSE be worth now?
