The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 38 BERKLEY CLOSE sales between July 1997 and October 2017 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 2013 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the October 2017 sale, where it falls to 39% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% below the HPI.
