27 RUSTIC CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 27 RUSTIC CLOSE sales between August 2003 and April 2022 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 2009 sale was for 9% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% above the HPI over time, until the April 2022 sale, where it falls to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.

What might 27 RUSTIC CLOSE be worth now?
