8 BURR CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Basildon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 BURR CLOSE sales from September 1995 and September 2003 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 September 1995 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the September 2003 sale, where it falls to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.

What might 8 BURR CLOSE be worth now?
