The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Guildford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 4 MERROW PLACE sales between April 2001 and May 2005 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 June 2002 sale was for 31% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% above the HPI over time, until the May 2005 sale, where it falls to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.
4 MERROW PLACE might now be worth an estimated £1,039,311.
