4 BRIGNALL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 BRIGNALL CLOSE sales from April 1995 and July 1997 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 1995 sale was for 61% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 61% above the HPI over time, until the July 1997 sale, where it rises to 68% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 68% above the HPI.

What might 4 BRIGNALL CLOSE be worth now?
