15 SIMPSON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Stafford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 15 SIMPSON CLOSE sales between September 2009 and September 2022 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 2015 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the September 2022 sale, where it rises to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.

What might 15 SIMPSON CLOSE be worth now?
