The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Castle Point local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 STEEPLE HEIGHTS sales between January 1999 and May 2014 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 March 2005 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the May 2014 sale, where it falls to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.
