37 MELROSE ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 37 MELROSE ROAD sales from November 2011 and March 2014 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 November 2011 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the March 2014 sale, where it rises to 28% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% below the HPI.
