26 BALA WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Worcester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 26 BALA WAY sales between October 2000 and May 2017 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 December 2001 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the May 2017 sale, where it falls to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.

What might 26 BALA WAY be worth now?
