5 EMERSON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sefton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 EMERSON CLOSE sales from June 2005 and May 2017 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 June 2005 sale was for 28% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% above the HPI over time, until the May 2017 sale, where it rises to 43% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% above the HPI.

What might 5 EMERSON CLOSE be worth now?
