5A STOUR CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Worthing local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5A STOUR CLOSE sales from April 2009 and July 2013 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 April 2009 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the July 2013 sale, where it falls to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.

What might 5A STOUR CLOSE be worth now?
