25 SCHOOL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 25 SCHOOL CLOSE sales from September 2009 and July 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 September 2009 sale was for 45% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% below the HPI over time, until the July 2019 sale, where it rises to 38% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% below the HPI.

What might 25 SCHOOL CLOSE be worth now?
