4 WORDSWORTH ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 4 WORDSWORTH ROAD sales between April 1995 and April 2018 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 August 2004 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the April 2018 sale, where it falls to 35% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% below the HPI.

What might 4 WORDSWORTH ROAD be worth now?
