12 LIFCHILD CLOSE 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 two 12 LIFCHILD CLOSE sales from August 2001 and July 2015 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 August 2001 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the July 2015 sale, where it rises to 19% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% below the HPI.
