15 HERON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 15 HERON CLOSE sales from August 1995 and April 2010 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 August 1995 sale was for 75% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 75% above the HPI over time, until the April 2010 sale, where it falls to 38% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% above the HPI.

What might 15 HERON CLOSE be worth now?
