42 GULLS CROFT 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 six 42 GULLS CROFT sales between December 1998 and June 2021 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 2007 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it falls to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.
