8 RITCHIE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Crawley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 RITCHIE CLOSE sales between June 1997 and October 2006 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 May 2001 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the October 2006 sale, where it rises to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might 8 RITCHIE CLOSE be worth now?
