78 DORCHESTER ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 78 DORCHESTER ROAD sales between April 1998 and February 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 July 2013 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the February 2018 sale, where it rises to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.

What might 78 DORCHESTER ROAD be worth now?
