The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 70 CHITTS HILL sales between May 1999 and January 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 February 2007 sale was for 17% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% above the HPI over time, until the January 2013 sale, where it rises to 70% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 70% above the HPI.
