17 KIRBY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 17 KIRBY CLOSE sales from July 2016 and March 2021 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 July 2016 sale was for 48% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% below the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it rises to 43% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% below the HPI.

What might 17 KIRBY CLOSE be worth now?
