40 ELMSTEAD ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 40 ELMSTEAD ROAD sales from April 2021 and January 2022 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 2021 sale was for 45% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% below the HPI over time, until the January 2022 sale, where it rises to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.

What might 40 ELMSTEAD ROAD be worth now?
