3 KINGSLAND CLOSE 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 3 KINGSLAND CLOSE sales from December 1997 and November 2014 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 1997 sale was for 56% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 56% below the HPI over time, until the November 2014 sale, where it rises to 48% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% below the HPI.

What might 3 KINGSLAND CLOSE be worth now?
