RIVER HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three RIVER HOUSE sales between December 2009 and September 2023 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 February 2017 sale was for 59% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 59% above the HPI over time, until the September 2023 sale, where it rises to 89% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 89% above the HPI.

What might RIVER HOUSE be worth now?
