4 HAROLD ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 HAROLD ROAD sales from October 2003 and March 2020 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 October 2003 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the March 2020 sale, where it rises to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.
