2 STABLE CLOSE 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 three 2 STABLE CLOSE sales between September 2002 and May 2012 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the October 2006 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the May 2012 sale, where it falls to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.
