55 KENT ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Southampton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 55 KENT ROAD sales between June 2002 and October 2021 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 2005 sale was for 34% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% below the HPI over time, until the October 2021 sale, where it falls to 37% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% below the HPI.

What might 55 KENT ROAD be worth now?
