42 VALLEY CRESCENT 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 42 VALLEY CRESCENT sales from September 2010 and July 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 September 2010 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the July 2021 sale, where it rises to 6% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% below the HPI.

What might 42 VALLEY CRESCENT be worth now?
