17 COAST 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 four 17 COAST ROAD sales between December 1997 and September 2021 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 2013 sale was for 224% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 224% above the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it rises to 273% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 273% above the HPI.
