9 LOUIS BRAILLE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Sefton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 9 LOUIS BRAILLE CLOSE sales from July 2001 and April 2008 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 July 2001 sale was for 53% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% below the HPI over time, until the April 2008 sale, where it rises to 39% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% below the HPI.

What might 9 LOUIS BRAILLE CLOSE be worth now?
