19 DOBBIE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 19 DOBBIE CLOSE sales from July 1998 and April 2016 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 1998 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the April 2016 sale, where it falls to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.

What might 19 DOBBIE CLOSE be worth now?
