The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Epping Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 4 STARLING CLOSE sales between June 2005 and July 2012 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 September 2010 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the July 2012 sale, where it rises to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.
