8 STEERFORTH CLOSE 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 STEERFORTH CLOSE sales from May 2006 and October 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 May 2006 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the October 2013 sale, which was also at 38% below the HPI.
