265 STRAIGHT ROAD 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 two 265 STRAIGHT ROAD sales from December 2000 and December 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 December 2000 sale was for 93% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 93% above the HPI over time, until the December 2017 sale, where it falls to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.
