6 MERTON AVENUE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bassetlaw local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 6 MERTON AVENUE sales between April 1997 and December 2018 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 November 2013 sale was for 46% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% below the HPI over time, until the December 2018 sale, where it rises to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.

What might 6 MERTON AVENUE be worth now?
