2 CAPTAIN GARDENS 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 two 2 CAPTAIN GARDENS sales from September 2014 and March 2023 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the September 2014 sale was for 56% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 56% below the HPI over time, until the March 2023 sale, where it rises to 53% below the HPI.
