16 PUFFIN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Basildon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 16 PUFFIN CLOSE sales between August 2001 and September 2017 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 December 2007 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the September 2017 sale, where it falls to 39% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% below the HPI.
