7 WESTWATER Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Castle Point local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 7 WESTWATER sales from December 2005 and December 2009 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 December 2005 sale was for 19% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% above the HPI over time, until the December 2009 sale, where it rises to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.
