48 BIRCH COVERT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Breckland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 48 BIRCH COVERT sales from July 2007 and May 2015 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 July 2007 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the May 2015 sale, which was also at 12% below the HPI.

What might 48 BIRCH COVERT be worth now?
