79 VARDON DRIVE 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 79 VARDON DRIVE sales from September 2008 and March 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 September 2008 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the March 2013 sale, where it rises to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.
