26 SANDPIPER 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 26 SANDPIPER CLOSE sales between November 1996 and February 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 October 2008 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the February 2016 sale, where it falls to 39% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% below the HPI.
