6 DUCHESS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Hampshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 6 DUCHESS CLOSE sales from February 1996 and December 2011 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 February 1996 sale was for 30% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% above the HPI over time, until the December 2011 sale, where it falls to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.

What might 6 DUCHESS CLOSE be worth now?
