26 SEVERN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Halton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 26 SEVERN CLOSE sales from March 2003 and October 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 March 2003 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the October 2023 sale, where it falls to 6% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% below the HPI.

What might 26 SEVERN CLOSE be worth now?
