5 FREEMAN CLOSE 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 three 5 FREEMAN CLOSE sales between October 2005 and February 2017 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 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the February 2017 sale, where it falls to 19% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% below the HPI.
