38 FOREST ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 38 FOREST ROAD sales from December 2004 and November 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 2004 sale was for 123% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 123% above the HPI over time, until the November 2017 sale, where it rises to 151% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 151% above the HPI.

What might 38 FOREST ROAD be worth now?
