8 MARIGOLD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Worcester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 MARIGOLD CLOSE sales from August 1996 and May 2004 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 August 1996 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the May 2004 sale, where it rises to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.

What might 8 MARIGOLD CLOSE be worth now?
