42 MOUNTBATTEN DRIVE 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 four 42 MOUNTBATTEN DRIVE sales between August 1999 and November 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 May 2006 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the November 2018 sale, where it falls to 36% below the HPI.
