7 MERRYFIELD APPROACH Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Southend-on-Sea local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 7 MERRYFIELD APPROACH sales from September 2001 and July 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 September 2001 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the July 2016 sale, where it falls to 39% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% below the HPI.
