8 THE HOLKHAM Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 THE HOLKHAM sales from October 1999 and August 2017 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 October 1999 sale was for 37% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% above the HPI over time, until the August 2017 sale, where it falls to 21% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% above the HPI.

What might 8 THE HOLKHAM be worth now?
