16 WELLS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 16 WELLS CLOSE sales between September 2001 and May 2022 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 March 2017 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the May 2022 sale, where it rises to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.

What might 16 WELLS CLOSE be worth now?
