26 TORRINGTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chelmsford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 26 TORRINGTON CLOSE sales from July 2020 and August 2022 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the July 2020 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the August 2022 sale, where it falls to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.

What might 26 TORRINGTON CLOSE be worth now?
