14 SWALLOW FIELD 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 SWALLOW FIELD sales from April 2000 and July 2012 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 April 2000 sale was for 8% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% above the HPI over time, until the July 2012 sale, where it falls to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.

What might 14 SWALLOW FIELD be worth now?
