5 PAPERMILL COTTAGES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 PAPERMILL COTTAGES sales from January 2004 and October 2006 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 January 2004 sale was for 68% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 68% below the HPI over time, until the October 2006 sale, where it rises to 63% below the HPI.
