9 THE RETREAT 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 9 THE RETREAT sales from April 1998 and November 2011 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 April 1998 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the November 2011 sale, where it rises to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.
