8 STARING CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swindon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 STARING CLOSE sales from April 2010 and July 2015 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 April 2010 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the July 2015 sale, where it rises to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.

What might 8 STARING CLOSE be worth now?
