4 HERMITAGE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Castle Point local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 HERMITAGE CLOSE sales from December 2007 and April 2018 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 December 2007 sale was for 42% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% above the HPI over time, until the April 2018 sale, where it falls to 28% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% above the HPI.
