17 BUCKS AVENUE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Watford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 17 BUCKS AVENUE sales from December 1997 and December 2003 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 1997 sale was for 89% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 89% below the HPI over time, until the December 2003 sale, where it rises to 31% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% above the HPI.

What might 17 BUCKS AVENUE be worth now?
