4 BRIDGE COTTAGES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chelmsford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 4 BRIDGE COTTAGES sales between October 1996 and July 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 2001 sale was for 37% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% below the HPI over time, until the July 2014 sale, where it rises to 21% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% above the HPI.
