173 STRAIGHT 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 three 173 STRAIGHT ROAD sales between June 1999 and April 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 October 2016 sale was for 34% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% above the HPI over time, until the April 2022 sale, where it rises to 43% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% above the HPI.
