8 WHITEHEAD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chelmsford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 WHITEHEAD CLOSE sales between July 2002 and January 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 October 2005 sale was for 50% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% above the HPI over time, until the January 2015 sale, where it falls to 42% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% above the HPI.

What might 8 WHITEHEAD CLOSE be worth now?
