5 STEPHENSON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Kirklees local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 STEPHENSON CLOSE sales between September 2003 and August 2008 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 November 2007 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the August 2008 sale, where it rises to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.

What might 5 STEPHENSON CLOSE be worth now?
