57 FORRESTERS DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 57 FORRESTERS DRIVE sales from April 2002 and May 2009 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the April 2002 sale was for 45% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% below the HPI over time, until the May 2009 sale, where it falls to 48% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% below the HPI.

What might 57 FORRESTERS DRIVE be worth now?
