4 THE ORCHARD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 4 THE ORCHARD CLOSE sales between January 1995 and April 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 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the April 2012 sale, where it falls to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.

What might 4 THE ORCHARD CLOSE be worth now?
