7 BOURCHIER AVENUE 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 7 BOURCHIER AVENUE sales from August 1999 and November 2013 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 August 1999 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the November 2013 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.
