12 CHURCH CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 12 CHURCH CLOSE sales between November 2004 and January 2021 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 May 2013 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the January 2021 sale, where it falls to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might 12 CHURCH CLOSE be worth now?
