5 CHESSWOOD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Worthing local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 CHESSWOOD CLOSE sales from July 2005 and February 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 July 2005 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the February 2014 sale, where it rises to 33% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% below the HPI.

What might 5 CHESSWOOD CLOSE be worth now?
