42 SIDNEY ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Medway local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 42 SIDNEY ROAD sales from October 2001 and September 2009 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 2001 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the September 2009 sale, where it rises to 38% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% below the HPI.

What might 42 SIDNEY ROAD be worth now?
