1A THE FOUR ACRES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Epping Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1A THE FOUR ACRES sales from May 2014 and January 2020 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 2014 sale was for 59% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 59% below the HPI over time, until the January 2020 sale, where it rises to 48% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% below the HPI.
