21 FIRSTORE DRIVE 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 21 FIRSTORE DRIVE sales between April 2000 and February 2017 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 January 2004 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the February 2017 sale, where it rises to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.
