18 CAPESTHORNE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Halton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 18 CAPESTHORNE CLOSE sales from September 1998 and September 2018 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 September 1998 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it falls to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might 18 CAPESTHORNE CLOSE be worth now?
