173 OLD HEATH ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 173 OLD HEATH ROAD sales from May 2010 and April 2023 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 May 2010 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the April 2023 sale, where it rises to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.
