OLD POST OFFICE HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Harborough local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two OLD POST OFFICE HOUSE sales from May 2009 and February 2016 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 May 2009 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the February 2016 sale, where it falls to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.

What might OLD POST OFFICE HOUSE be worth now?
