14 BLISS 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 14 BLISS CLOSE sales from February 2003 and March 2008 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 February 2003 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the March 2008 sale, where it falls to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.
