38 SYDNEY AVENUE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 38 SYDNEY AVENUE sales from February 2010 and August 2018 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 February 2010 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, where it rises to 41% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% above the HPI.

What might 38 SYDNEY AVENUE be worth now?
