8 SHAFTESBURY ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 SHAFTESBURY ROAD sales from January 2001 and May 2023 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 January 2001 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the May 2023 sale, where it rises to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.

What might 8 SHAFTESBURY ROAD be worth now?
