28 THE WHIMBRELS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bridgend local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 28 THE WHIMBRELS sales between June 2001 and October 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 April 2002 sale was for 51% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 51% above the HPI over time, until the October 2011 sale, where it rises to 62% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 62% above the HPI.

What might 28 THE WHIMBRELS be worth now?
