4 LANCASTER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bournemouth Christchurch and Poole local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 LANCASTER CLOSE sales from November 1997 and December 2003 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 1997 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the December 2003 sale, which was also at 31% below the HPI.

What might 4 LANCASTER CLOSE be worth now?
