4 DE CLARE CLOSE 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 two 4 DE CLARE CLOSE sales from November 2010 and October 2012 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 November 2010 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the October 2012 sale, where it rises to 82% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 82% above the HPI.

What might 4 DE CLARE CLOSE be worth now?
