6 HERON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rochford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 6 HERON CLOSE sales from June 1999 and June 2021 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 1999 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it falls to 47% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 47% below the HPI.
