5 DOWNES CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire East local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 DOWNES CLOSE sales between March 2013 and March 2021 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 September 2016 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it rises to 36% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% above the HPI.

What might 5 DOWNES CLOSE be worth now?
