5 MITCHELL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Three Rivers local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 MITCHELL CLOSE sales from September 1999 and July 2022 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 1999 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the July 2022 sale, where it falls to 47% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 47% below the HPI.

What might 5 MITCHELL CLOSE be worth now?
