494 LEIGH ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Bolton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 494 LEIGH ROAD sales from April 2004 and August 2004 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 April 2004 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the August 2004 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 494 LEIGH ROAD be worth now?
