5 VALLEY ROAD 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 VALLEY ROAD sales from March 2016 and February 2019 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 March 2016 sale was for 47% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 47% below the HPI over time, until the February 2019 sale, where it rises to 44% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% below the HPI.
