198 CRESSING 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 four 198 CRESSING ROAD sales between October 2000 and January 2025 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 2009 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the January 2025 sale, where it rises to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.
