The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 GEORGE GENT CLOSE sales from December 1996 and July 2010 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the December 1996 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the July 2010 sale, where it falls to 39% below the HPI.
