1 HEREFORD DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 1 HEREFORD DRIVE sales between June 2001 and November 2021 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 October 2009 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the November 2021 sale, where it falls to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.
