31 BALFOUR ROAD 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 31 BALFOUR ROAD sales from May 1998 and May 2011 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 1998 sale was for 41% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 41% below the HPI over time, until the May 2011 sale, where it rises to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.
