8 MELLANBY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Thanet local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 MELLANBY CLOSE sales between August 1998 and November 2007 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 December 2002 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the November 2007 sale, where it falls to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might 8 MELLANBY CLOSE be worth now?
