2 LUDLOW DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 LUDLOW DRIVE sales from May 2001 and October 2005 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 2001 sale was for 39% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% above the HPI over time, until the October 2005 sale, where it falls to 24% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% above the HPI.

What might 2 LUDLOW DRIVE be worth now?
