The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 WESTWOOD DRIVE sales between September 1999 and October 2020 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the July 2001 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, where it rises to 19% above the HPI.
