42 AVENUE ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Leicester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 42 AVENUE ROAD sales from November 1995 and October 2023 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 1995 sale was for 134% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 134% above the HPI over time, until the October 2023 sale, where it falls to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might 42 AVENUE ROAD be worth now?
