18 WEST STREET Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Powys local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 18 WEST STREET sales between June 2008 and August 2015 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 2009 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the August 2015 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 18 WEST STREET be worth now?
