10 ORCHARD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Hertsmere local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 10 ORCHARD CLOSE sales from February 2001 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 February 2001 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the February 2014 sale, where it falls to 35% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% below the HPI.

What might 10 ORCHARD CLOSE be worth now?
