4 STRAIGHT ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 4 STRAIGHT ROAD sales between April 1997 and February 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 April 2003 sale was for 40% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% below the HPI over time, until the February 2014 sale, where it rises to 19% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% below the HPI.

What might 4 STRAIGHT ROAD be worth now?
