2 LEIGHTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 LEIGHTON CLOSE sales between June 1999 and February 2019 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 May 2007 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the February 2019 sale, where it falls to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.

What might 2 LEIGHTON CLOSE be worth now?
