5 LEIGH ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Medway local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 LEIGH ROAD sales from July 1998 and October 2009 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 1998 sale was for 42% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% above the HPI over time, until the October 2009 sale, where it falls to 24% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% above the HPI.

What might 5 LEIGH ROAD be worth now?
