38 STRAIGHT 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 38 STRAIGHT ROAD sales from November 2009 and March 2021 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 2009 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it falls to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.
