8 DARCY GARDENS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Melton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 DARCY GARDENS sales from January 2000 and October 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 January 2000 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the October 2018 sale, where it falls to 28% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% below the HPI.

What might 8 DARCY GARDENS be worth now?
