8 DORSET AVENUE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chelmsford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 DORSET AVENUE sales from June 2012 and December 2020 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the June 2012 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it rises to 19% below the HPI.
