2 HIGHFIELD DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sunderland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 HIGHFIELD DRIVE sales from July 2008 and October 2010 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 2008 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the October 2010 sale, where it falls to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.

What might 2 HIGHFIELD DRIVE be worth now?
