26 OAKHURST CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Medway local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 26 OAKHURST CLOSE sales from May 2013 and November 2015 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 2013 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the November 2015 sale, where it falls to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.

What might 26 OAKHURST CLOSE be worth now?
