5 WHITEFIELD 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 three 5 WHITEFIELD CLOSE sales between July 2000 and November 2006 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 August 2003 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the November 2006 sale, where it falls to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.

What might 5 WHITEFIELD CLOSE be worth now?
