The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 305 STRAIGHT ROAD sales between June 2004 and January 2023 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 October 2014 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the January 2023 sale, where it falls to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.
