The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chelmsford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 RAINSFORD AVENUE sales from June 1996 and May 2004 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 June 1996 sale was for 57% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 57% above the HPI over time, until the May 2004 sale, where it falls to 28% above the HPI.
