The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 33 BENTON CLOSE sales from July 2001 and August 2011 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the July 2001 sale was for 56% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 56% below the HPI over time, until the August 2011 sale, where it rises to 51% below the HPI.
