71 ABBEY FOREGATE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Shropshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 71 ABBEY FOREGATE sales from May 2004 and October 2007 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 2004 sale was for 135% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 135% above the HPI over time, until the October 2007 sale, where it falls to 78% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 78% above the HPI.

What might 71 ABBEY FOREGATE be worth now?
