8 MERSEY ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 MERSEY ROAD sales from July 2016 and January 2025 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 July 2016 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the January 2025 sale, where it falls to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.
