2 COB LANE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 COB LANE CLOSE sales between April 1999 and June 2014 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 December 2001 sale was for 63% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 63% above the HPI over time, until the June 2014 sale, where it falls to 43% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% above the HPI.

What might 2 COB LANE CLOSE be worth now?
