13 ORCHARDS 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 13 ORCHARDS sales between December 1998 and April 2014 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 September 2005 sale was for 12% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% above the HPI over time, until the April 2014 sale, where it rises to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.
