2 LANGWOOD 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 five 2 LANGWOOD sales between July 2000 and September 2021 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 June 2012 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.
