23 BARN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dudley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 23 BARN CLOSE sales from February 2012 and March 2023 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 February 2012 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the March 2023 sale, where it rises to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.

What might 23 BARN CLOSE be worth now?
