26 WHITTAKER WAY 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 WHITTAKER WAY sales between September 2005 and January 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 November 2012 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the January 2023 sale, where it falls to 21% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% below the HPI.
