36 NEEDHILL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Solihull local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 36 NEEDHILL CLOSE sales between July 1996 and August 2016 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 1998 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the August 2016 sale, where it rises to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.

What might 36 NEEDHILL CLOSE be worth now?
