14 LONGCROFT ROAD 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 two 14 LONGCROFT ROAD sales from July 2008 and May 2016 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 July 2008 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the May 2016 sale, where it rises to 34% below the HPI.
