97 SEVERN DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Staffordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 97 SEVERN DRIVE sales between July 1996 and August 2020 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 2002 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the August 2020 sale, where it falls to 45% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 45% below the HPI.

What might 97 SEVERN DRIVE be worth now?
