2 PUFFIN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Basildon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 PUFFIN CLOSE sales between September 2001 and September 2016 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 August 2012 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the September 2016 sale, where it falls to 38% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% below the HPI.
