6 SERPENTINE WALK Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 6 SERPENTINE WALK sales from March 1997 and March 2016 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 1997 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the March 2016 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.
