12 AUSTIN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bridgend local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 12 AUSTIN CLOSE sales between November 1997 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 November 2003 sale was for 68% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 68% above the HPI over time, until the February 2016 sale, where it rises to 73% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 73% above the HPI.

What might 12 AUSTIN CLOSE be worth now?
