179 RAYNE ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 179 RAYNE ROAD sales from April 2003 and June 2007 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 April 2003 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the June 2007 sale, where it rises to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might 179 RAYNE ROAD be worth now?
