42 QUEENS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 42 QUEENS CLOSE sales from December 2007 and May 2010 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 December 2007 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the May 2010 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 42 QUEENS CLOSE be worth now?
