6 ESSEX CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Hinckley and Bosworth local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 6 ESSEX CLOSE sales from December 2002 and February 2022 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 December 2002 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the February 2022 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.
