ARDLEYS 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 ARDLEYS sales from May 1999 and December 2005 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 1999 sale was for 34% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% above the HPI over time, until the December 2005 sale, where it falls to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.
