49 GAVIN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Blaby local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 49 GAVIN CLOSE sales from June 2000 and September 2003 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 2000 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the September 2003 sale, where it rises to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.

What might 49 GAVIN CLOSE be worth now?
