3 RECREATION WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tendring local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 3 RECREATION WAY sales between July 1995 and February 2021 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 November 2015 sale was for 79% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 79% above the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, where it rises to 82% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 82% above the HPI.
