8 YORK CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the West Northamptonshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 YORK CLOSE sales from September 1995 and July 2001 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 September 1995 sale was for 17% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% above the HPI over time, until the July 2001 sale, where it falls to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.

What might 8 YORK CLOSE be worth now?
