23 BLACKCAP CLOSE 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 three 23 BLACKCAP CLOSE sales between October 1997 and July 2011 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 November 2001 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the July 2011 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 23 BLACKCAP CLOSE be worth now?
