8 FOSTER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Knowsley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 FOSTER CLOSE sales from June 1998 and March 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 June 1998 sale was for 35% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% above the HPI over time, until the March 2003 sale, where it rises to 67% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 67% above the HPI.

What might 8 FOSTER CLOSE be worth now?
