20 KINGSMERE 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 20 KINGSMERE CLOSE sales between December 1999 and September 2006 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 2003 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the September 2006 sale, where it falls to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.
