5 ASKWITH 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 four 5 ASKWITH CLOSE sales between April 1995 and December 2014 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 2012 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the December 2014 sale, where it falls to 48% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% below the HPI.

What might 5 ASKWITH CLOSE be worth now?
