14 SPARROW DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stevenage local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 14 SPARROW DRIVE sales between October 1997 and December 2015 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 2011 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the December 2015 sale, which was also at 16% below the HPI.

What might 14 SPARROW DRIVE be worth now?
