8 FIR TREE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Chorley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 FIR TREE CLOSE sales between November 2003 and September 2013 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 2006 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the September 2013 sale, where it falls to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.

What might 8 FIR TREE CLOSE be worth now?
