8 BLAKES WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 BLAKES WAY sales from July 2016 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 July 2016 sale was for 98% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 98% below the HPI over time, until the December 2018 sale, where it rises to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.

What might 8 BLAKES WAY be worth now?
