7 LABURNUM CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tendring local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 7 LABURNUM CLOSE sales from January 1998 and July 2019 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 January 1998 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the July 2019 sale, where it falls to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.
