3 BLACKWATER MEWS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Maldon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 BLACKWATER MEWS sales from September 2005 and April 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 September 2005 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the April 2016 sale, where it falls to 21% below the HPI.
