8 PORLOCK CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 PORLOCK CLOSE sales between March 1995 and May 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 July 2007 sale was for 46% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% above the HPI over time, until the May 2013 sale, where it rises to 56% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 56% above the HPI.

What might 8 PORLOCK CLOSE be worth now?
