10 FIRS HAMLET 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 five 10 FIRS HAMLET sales between March 1997 and September 2022 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 2015 sale was for 69% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 69% above the HPI over time, until the September 2022 sale, where it falls to 60% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 60% above the HPI.

What might 10 FIRS HAMLET be worth now?
