3 HOVE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Thurrock local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 HOVE CLOSE sales from May 1996 and December 2000 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 May 1996 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the December 2000 sale, where it falls to 37% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% below the HPI.
