5 ESSEX DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wychavon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 ESSEX DRIVE sales between May 2003 and March 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 December 2006 sale was for 218% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 218% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it falls to 186% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 186% above the HPI.
