6 HIGHGROVE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 6 HIGHGROVE CLOSE sales between September 1995 and July 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 January 2008 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the July 2011 sale, where it rises to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.

What might 6 HIGHGROVE CLOSE be worth now?
