The below graph shows the average detached house price in the City of Derby local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 28 MELBOURNE CLOSE sales from May 2001 and January 2012 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 May 2001 sale was for 49% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 49% above the HPI over time, until the January 2012 sale, where it falls to 36% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% above the HPI.
28 MELBOURNE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £431,704.
