17 ACHILLES WAY 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 four 17 ACHILLES WAY sales between December 1998 and August 2022 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 August 2021 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the August 2022 sale, where it rises to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.

What might 17 ACHILLES WAY be worth now?
