15 BRIGHTWATER Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bolton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 15 BRIGHTWATER sales from February 2003 and February 2012 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 2003 sale was for 43% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% above the HPI over time, until the February 2012 sale, where it falls to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might 15 BRIGHTWATER be worth now?
