5 EMPEROR WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Ashford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 EMPEROR WAY sales from May 2002 and October 2004 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 May 2002 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the October 2004 sale, where it rises to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.

What might 5 EMPEROR WAY be worth now?
