13 MERTON PLACE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chelmsford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 13 MERTON PLACE sales between February 1997 and March 2004 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 January 1999 sale was for 71% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 71% below the HPI over time, until the March 2004 sale, where it rises to 66% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 66% below the HPI.
