26 BOWES DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Epping Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 26 BOWES DRIVE sales from September 1996 and April 2023 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 September 1996 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the April 2023 sale, where it falls to 54% below the HPI.
