The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 18 BOURCHIER AVENUE sales between May 1999 and February 2019 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the May 2002 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the February 2019 sale, where it falls to 32% below the HPI.
