The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wolverhampton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 42 HORNBY ROAD sales from October 2002 and October 2004 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 October 2002 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the October 2004 sale, where it rises to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.
42 HORNBY ROAD might now be worth an estimated £291,842.
