1 GAINFORD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Halton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 GAINFORD CLOSE sales from February 2002 and September 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 February 2002 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the September 2016 sale, where it falls to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.

What might 1 GAINFORD CLOSE be worth now?
