41 BIRCHWOOD DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Southend-on-Sea local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 41 BIRCHWOOD DRIVE sales between March 2002 and October 2019 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 2006 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the October 2019 sale, where it falls to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.

What might 41 BIRCHWOOD DRIVE be worth now?
