40 SWEET BRIAR CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Babergh local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 40 SWEET BRIAR CLOSE sales between July 1997 and August 2020 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 September 2014 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the August 2020 sale, where it falls to 19% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% below the HPI.

What might 40 SWEET BRIAR CLOSE be worth now?
