6 BOTANY DRIVE 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 five 6 BOTANY DRIVE sales between June 2001 and December 2014 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 April 2011 sale was for 41% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 41% below the HPI over time, until the December 2014 sale, where it rises to 39% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% below the HPI.

What might 6 BOTANY DRIVE be worth now?
