The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chelmsford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 34 MARTINGALE DRIVE sales between April 1996 and May 2008 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 March 2004 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the May 2008 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.
