1 JAMES CLOSE 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 1 JAMES CLOSE sales from October 2001 and September 2023 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 2001 sale was for 44% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% below the HPI over time, until the September 2023 sale, where it rises to 43% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% below the HPI.
