The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 31 BULLFINCH CLOSE sales between January 1998 and August 2010 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 September 2005 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the August 2010 sale, where it rises to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.
