12 WANDERDOWN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Brighton and Hove local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 12 WANDERDOWN CLOSE sales between September 2014 and December 2020 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the August 2016 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, which was also at 27% below the HPI.

What might 12 WANDERDOWN CLOSE be worth now?
