9 VIRGINIA ORCHARD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 9 VIRGINIA ORCHARD sales between January 1998 and January 2021 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 January 2012 sale was for 15% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% above the HPI over time, until the January 2021 sale, where it falls to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.

What might 9 VIRGINIA ORCHARD be worth now?
