1 BLACKTHORN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Derbyshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 BLACKTHORN CLOSE sales from June 2007 and May 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 June 2007 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the May 2008 sale, where it rises to 46% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% above the HPI.

What might 1 BLACKTHORN CLOSE be worth now?
