MYRTLE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two MYRTLE COTTAGE sales from February 2007 and November 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 February 2007 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the November 2014 sale, where it rises to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.
