42 ROCHFORD ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Southend-on-Sea local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 42 ROCHFORD ROAD sales from October 2012 and February 2019 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 2012 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the February 2019 sale, where it falls to 41% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% below the HPI.
