17 EARLS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Redditch local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 17 EARLS CLOSE sales between November 1999 and December 2017 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 May 2009 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the December 2017 sale, where it rises to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.

What might 17 EARLS CLOSE be worth now?
