The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 GREENFINCH CLOSE sales from July 2013 and August 2015 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the July 2013 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the August 2015 sale, which was also at 19% below the HPI.

What might 8 GREENFINCH CLOSE be worth now?
